Who hunted LaunchCut?
LaunchCut was hunted by Andrew Hoffart. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.

Hey PH! I'm the maker of LaunchCut and wanted to share a bit about why I built it.
If you build iOS apps and want to show them off, you're basically limited to screenshots or a screen recording. Both get the point across but neither lets someone actually feel the app before they download it. I went looking for something better and couldn't find it, so LaunchCut is what came out of that.
You run your app in Xcode Simulator, open LaunchCut alongside it, and click through your screens to capture them. From there you map hotspots to recreate your real navigation flow including animations, and export a fully interactive demo. It outputs as a self-contained HTML file or a shareable web link you can embed anywhere. The simulator chrome comes through in the output so it looks and feels like someone using a real device, not a mockup.
This is useful for anyone who makes apps and wants a better way to share them. An indie dev putting a live demo on their site, a team pitching to stakeholders, a company giving visitors a real feel for their app before they ever hit the App Store. Screenshots and videos only go so far.
The app is free to download and the HTML file it exports is the same experience as the shareable link, so you can have a working interactive demo of your app in about 5 minutes at no cost. If it clicks for you, the subscription is there when you're ready. Would love to hear from anyone who has run into this same gap. Happy to answer any questions about how it works. Thanks for checking it out!
